After reading “Silent Spring” written by Rachel Carson, I began to look at the world differently. All her facts and reasonings to back her statements up, I feel like there is more I could be doing with my life.Maybe I should go out and find out what is wrong with the community and try to raise awareness. After reading “Nature Fights back”, Carson speaks about how if we continue to put the nature in endanger then it will become worse. As well as saying if nature goes down we go down. If we continue to spray pesticides on our plants, then our insects will eat from them then carry on the disease, to humans.  These chemicals that are being put into the air are polluting the insides of all living things, animals, plants and humans. Exactly how and why cancer rate is high enough today. This is quite shocking to me that the cancer rate has gone higher because while everyone is screaming “Fuck Cancer” they are the ones not trying to cure the nature and causing the rate to become higher each year. Carson is also, emphasizing the importance of keeping the earth, fresh, natural and pesticides free. The lesson I have learned after reading most of the book is to always be courteous of the earth and the people living in it.
